eCard Registration | New Westminster Public Library

LIBRARY CARDS

Anyone, regardless of age, living in the Lower Mainland can get a New Westminster Public Library card.

Children aged 0-12 may have a Children’s card, as long as they have a parent or guardian sign the application.

Anyone age 13 and over gets an Adult card and must sign their own applications.

Appropriate ID for full-service library cards (not eCards)

To borrow materials, you must show proof of name and address. You may provide:

A current BC driver’s license, BC Services Card, or BC ID
A current letter or bill (e.g. BC Hydro) addressed to you, a bank statement, or personal cheque
Passport, birth certificate, social insurance card, citizenship card, or PR card as well as documentation showing your address

eCards give you access to our online, digital resources like ebooks, eaudiobooks, emagazines, enewspaper, learning tutorials and other online-only services.
